Louisiana's Wage Payment statute requires that you be paid all wages, including unpaid vacation time, on or before the next regular payday, or within 15 days, whichever is greater. If not, toucan file suit for the wages (and vacation), penalties, and attorneys fees.
AND, you may be owed overtime......
